Chapter 23 What's the situation?

"Hurry! Follow up! No one is allowed to make a sound! Wrap cloth on the horses' hooves and move forward quickly!" Li Pu bent down and stood at the entrance of a cave to direct everyone to pass quickly.

During these three days, Li Pu and others hid during the day and did not start marching until night.

Finally, we arrived outside Jixian City at dawn on the third day, but there seemed to be some accidents.

"General! The sentry detected a large number of ambushes outside Ji County, including many swordsmen and horsemen!" Lai Wen touched Li Pu's side.

"What! We were exposed?" Li Pu was shocked when he heard the situation.

"No, their ambush is surrounded by a mountain forest outside the city gate. It should have nothing to do with us."

Li Pu then quickly bent down his waist that he had just straightened up.

"Who are they ambushing? Do you have any information?"

"No, I came with the general, how could I have information?"

"About how many of them are there?"

"I secretly caught a lone man just now. I learned from his mouth that there are about ten thousand cavalry in the mountains, and the rest are swordsmen and axemen, about five thousand."

"Fifteen thousand? So much! Who are they planning to kill?" Li Pu frowned.

"General, what should we do now? Kill them all?"

"Pig brain! Just lie in wait quietly and wait for my order!"

"General, look, someone is coming out."

Although Liu Yu hated Gongsun Zan very much, what Gongsun Zan said was not unreasonable. Once a war broke out, no matter victory or defeat, the people would suffer the most, so Liu Yu still agreed to Gongsun Zan's invitation.

The people of Youzhou are all his subjects, and you cannot drag the entire Youzhou into trouble just because you hate Gongsun Zan.

But this was a really bad reason for hunting. Liu Yu led a group of cavalry and Gongsun Zan gathered together and left the city gate.

The two of them chatted from time to time while riding on their war horses, looking like they were enjoying themselves.

"This person seems to be Gongsun Zan? Who is the other person?" Li Pu looked at the two people going out and couldn't help but move forward.

The enemy general was right in front of him. If he didn't kill him, Li Pu would feel a little sorry for himself.

Li Pu lowered his head and bent his waist, and moved forward step by step.

At this time, Li Pu had reached the front, even in front of Gongsun Zan's ambush. Logically speaking, there should be no one here, but he actually saw six or seven people wearing Jizhou military uniforms.

"Are you all ready?" The man in the lead was obviously stronger, and he hid behind a low slope with six people.

"?" Li Pu was a little confused. Is he going to kill Gongsun Zan? Is there anyone so brave in his army?

Although Li Pu knew that his army was full of bloodthirsty lunatics, he never expected that they would be so crazy.

He dared to be so unscrupulous because of the template of Nok. These seven people dared to do this with only their mortal bodies. They are truly warriors!

The location chosen by the seven people was extremely rare, and for some unknown reason Gongsun Zan led Liu Yu straight towards this low slope.

Li Pu clearly felt that the attention of the people in front of him was focused on Gongsun Zan, and his breathing became lower and lower as Gongsun Zan approached, until he was silent.

Only then did Li Pu realize that these people seemed to be professionals. No wonder he dared to assassinate just seven people.

Li Pu was very happy that there were warriors in the army like this. Regardless of whether these seven people could succeed this time, as long as they had the chance to return, he would reward them.

Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu chatted all the way. Although they were all topics that were not nutritious, Liu Yu would still say a few words from time to time for the sake of the people.

"Have you eaten Bo'an? I heard that there was a man in Chang'an who made braised pork sandwiched into baked sesame cakes and it was very delicious. It's a pity that I didn't get to meet him." Gongsun Zan chatted without saying a word.

Liu Yu also dealt with Gongsun Zan casually.

"Well, it should be delicious."

"I also heard that there is a drink in the far west. It is completely black and contains magical gas. Once you drink it, you will burp non-stop. It is very magical."

"oh."

If he hadn't arrived at the scheduled place yet, Gongsun Zan would have wanted to give Liu Yu a slap in the face.

I don’t know how long Gongsun Zan kept talking, but Liu Yu still said it in an extremely perfunctory manner.

Liu Yu had been waiting for Gongsun Zan to discuss with him how to resist Pan Feng. This guy wanted to yell in his ears a few days ago. Why did he keep saying this today?

It wasn't that Gongsun Zan didn't want to talk to Liu Yu, but he didn't even know what to say. He had been secretly transporting soldiers to the mountains and forests outside the city at night for the past few days, and he had no time to prepare the content of the conversation.

I can only walk towards the established goal while playing tricks.

"Bo'an, why don't we just set up camp on this slope, cook wine and shoot some hunting?"

"So good."

The two of them rode up a short slope together, and something unexpected happened just as they reached the top of the slope.

Liu Yu saw several soldiers wearing Jizhou military uniforms behind Aipo. The moment they saw him, several soldiers rushed out.

The daggers in these people's hands shone with cold light, some stood there and pointed their bows like the full moon at him, and some actually used giant axes to assassinate him, which was simply outrageous.

"It's bad there are assassins!" Liu Yu subconsciously shouted loudly, and his horse was frightened by this sudden situation, and its front hooves flew into the air and neighed.

The cavalry behind Liu Yu rushed forward as soon as they saw the assassin. But no matter how fast the horse was, how could he outpace the assassin who was so close?

Liu Yu's horse was so frightened that its front hooves flew into the air. Before it landed, an arrow flew out of the forest and pierced the abdomen of Liu Yu's horse.

The war horse neighed and fell to the ground. Liu Yu was pinned to the ground by his mount and could not escape at all.

Liu Yu could only watch helplessly as the assassin stepped forward and inserted the dagger into his body.

"Are you mistaken? He is Gongsun Zan!" Li Pu looked confused as these people shot down the people around Gongsun Zan, and then didn't even care that Gongsun Zan was going to kill this unlucky guy. Li Pu hurriedly

He pointed at Gongsun Zan who was running away and asked how many people there were.

When the leader looked back, he realized that the stupid young man was actually wearing a general's uniform with a blood-red cloak behind him.

"Who are you? How can you wear this kind of clothes to assassinate? What did I tell you in the first place?"

"ah?"

"Who asked you to come and wait until I get back? I have to kill him!" Although the leader glared at Li Pu fiercely, he still told Li Pu the plot again.

"Liu Yu is dead. General Gongsun will come and capture us soon. Remember not to resist. General Gongsun will bring a few death row prisoners to replace us. Then we can take the money and go free!"

The leader saw countless cavalry rushing forward, skillfully threw aside the dagger in his hand, and knelt on the ground with a thud.
